Correct, fines, loss of draft picks and not allowed to sign anyone.

There hasn't been a situation where a team had to be forced.

In the case of SF as I remember it was either incentives or bonuses that were somehow hidden to avoid the cap, I think this was orignally how Dallas used to do things before the league said they couldn't. They'd sign a player for say 1million then Jerry Jones would get them some endorsement for say 1million. So they got 2mil, but only 1mil via the team/cap.
